Other scenes include a child trading Minnie’s doll for a pup, a Norfolk boy mishearing circus terms, and a teacher asking whom you most wish to see in heaven.

An Early Snake Story From Mount Holly
A Barkley county report describes a lightwood log moving toward Becreek as snakes burst forth from the log. The workers fled in terror while Dr. Byrd watched the snakes disperse, the scene ending with a startling revelation of the log’s hidden occupants. The odd tale appears in the Atlanta Constitution.
